At UpCloud we let you to choose what fits you needs and budget the best. You can select one of the preconfigured plans or choose CPU, RAM and Storage individually. The resources are only billed by the usage - if you

VPSSIM

SSH control panel that doesn't consume resources

VPSSIM is the short name for VPS SIMPLE – a terminal based simple, friendly and easy to understand control panel for your LEMP stack (Linux, Nginx, MySQL, PHP) in CentOS 6/7.

A web hosting control panel that doesn’t consume any resources and has a strong online community driven engagement model across the globe.

Why developers choose UpCloud

UpCloud is faster. Much faster.

We built a completely new type of storage backend, aptly named MaxIOPS. It's specifically built to give you the best I/O performance for todays demanding web applications and services. It often gives you up to 2x the performance of enterprise-grade SSD.

Incredible price/performance ratio

Being the defacto industry leader like AWS means that they don't need to compete on pricing, which in turn means that you as a customer are paying a premium for the same level of performance as with many other cloud providers. So while you can get the
same performance with AWS EC2 as with UpCloud, you will often have to pay more than twice as much for it.

Prices start at just $5/mo and you can scale up or down whenever you want!

Unrivaled resource management

With other cloud computing providers fixed instances/plans, you are locked to the resource limits that is provided by the specific instance/plan. What if you need to add additional CPU cores, but are happy with the amount of memory? Too
bad!

You'll have to upgrade to the next available instance/plan, significantly adding to your costs as you are paying for resources you don't actually need. Without the possibility of configuring each resource independently, you will never
be in complete control.

With UpCloud, you get the best of both worlds. Each cloud server can be deployed using a preconfigured (discounted) plan or with fully customized resources, according to your budget and requirements. You can even switch between plans and
custom configurations whenever you want!
